So to spitball ideas OOC, the theme of this room seems to be accepting and being peace with death. Our characters have access to the Crimson Shroud feat, which is a mechanical expression of this idea.

Crimson Shroud wrote:
Finally, if you die while the shroud is active, you can choose to have your entire body vanish into red mist, leaving behind only your gear; you make this choice when you activate Crimson Shroud.

(Bolded for emphasis)

Perhaps having that active will bypass any traps and hazards?

Seconded.

Quote:
In a world where powerful magic can raise the dead, Achaekek and His followers eschew such magic and actively work to counter it, to ensure that any that experience sacred death at the blades of one of the Mantis God’s servant will meet with Pharasma for judgement, and not circumvent the intended nature of the Cycle of Souls.

Interesting similarity to Pharasma here, but emphasizing the opposition to a different affront to life and death.

That seems like a reasonable idea.

FYI, Ajoran, Exploit Vulnerability is NOT the same thing as Recall Knowledge, so the bonus from your tome implement doesn't apply.

that as a grimoire Blaze is only really helpful to prepared casters

Yes, I can't scribe spells into it, but its activated abilities are all very cool, like ignoring 10 fire resistance or adding persistent fire damage as a reaction. I could also find creative uses for its heat sense and fire lore.

You actually can't use the "ignore fire resistance" thing, because that requires using a spell that was prepared from the grimoire. The other activations are fair game, though.

Hero Points reset in a week (see below)

Alright, so I know that my normal situation is that I reset Hero Points on the 1st of the month, but I am making an exception for November for very obvious reasons.

This week is gonna be chaos for me because, as I’ve mentioned previously, I’m getting married. I will be completely unavailable to post from 10/30-11/1 because I NEED to focus all my attention on, y’know, the most important social event of my life xD

I'm happy for you. Congrats again. Enjoy.

Reminder (maybe mostly to self?) that Suryo has

Otherwordly Mission - Ask for Orders

to use one time in this adventure.

Based on their sliding or other movement do they ever come to be on the floor and flat vs. a line at the edge of a square? (trade Z for X or Y)

Yes they do, but they have not ended their turn on the floor.

Congrats to the GM!

Might be slow to reply for a bit. Early in the week is when school days and work days overlap, and I also have a doctor's appointment coming up in the morning.

FYI, Ajoran: Personal Antithesis is now 10 damage (2 + half level), and Sever Magic usually only really works against spells specifically. You didn't hit with it, so it's a bit of a moot point, but I miiiiight have given you SOMETHING if you DID hit with it, just nothing really that intended by the activity itself.

FYI I'm heading out on a fairly long trip from next week, November 4th to the 24th. I haven't yet decided whether I'm going to take my laptop, but I'll have my phone at least. I will definitely be posting with a reduced frequency though.

Running around today like a chicken with my head cut off. Things are calming down a bit. Also, for those not in the know, the Paizo website is gonna be down from 11/3 to...I believe 11/5 (I'd need to double-check)

Yeah, the first draft of the post had a Recall Knowledge question relating to whether or not they could be dispelled and an If/Then split in spoilers about which actions Ajoran would take, but then the post got lost and I didn't have it in me to recreate all that on a 15 minute break.

Ah well, it is what it is.
